we have tons and tons of rhubarb. I have already made jam and got some home brew wine on the go but have no more room in the freezer.

suggestions welcome please

Same problem!  i made Nigella's Rhubarb and Cornmeal (polenta) cake and it makes a great pudding with custard, or just cake when cold. Will definitely do it again.

I make both jam and crumble with our rhubarb but I always add stem ginger to it to give it a kick.

I agree, rhubarb and ginger jam is excellent. We also stew most of the rhubarb and freeze it, ready to eat in later months.

Can you just cut it up into chunks and freeze it or does it have to be stewed beforehand?

[lucyandrew]

thanks everybody.

have got a batch of rhubarb champers brewing away so should be good for some summer nights round the bbq.

will have to make more room in the freezer me thinks!

Anybody got any ideas on what to do with the leftover rhubarb once they've been used for champagne??

We've just made 10 litres into the fermenting bin which will give us a couple of pounds of rhubarb bits at the end

You could also try Rhubarb and Ginger sponge pudding. There's a recipe on my blog, pinched from the telegraph. Very yum.

The herb Swet Cicely takes the bitterness out of rhubarb and looks lovely in the jam and crumbles etc.

Rhubarb wine is lovely, it's one of the things I want to do when I start making my own wine. Maybe I'll ask the inlaws if I can toss a few pieces into their next batch.

Extra rhubarb around here turns into one of two things: 1) cobbler, or 2) sugary starchy jam that goes on pancakes.
